Club career

Ipswich Town

Price was born in Bournemouth and was an academy player at Southampton but fell out with the goalkeeping coach. He had a trial at Fulham but joined Ipswich Town in October 2001 and graduated through the youth system. He represented Dorset in county matches at under-15 and under-16 levels. He became known for stepping in for Kelvin Davis during the 2004–05 season and saving a penalty against Coventry. After Davies returned from injury, Price played for Cambridge United on loan for part of the season. Davis departed at the end of the 2004–05 season, with Price contesting Shane Supple to be first choice goalkeeper. He then started nearly every game ahead of first choice keeper Shane Supple. In the 2006–07 season, just a week after Petr Čech and Carlo Cudicini sustained horrific injuries which brought up an argument that goalkeepers need more protection, Price was injured in Ipswich's 3–1 victory over Southend United.

Despite playing well for Ipswich when called upon, the arrival of Neil Alexander at Ipswich meant Price's future was destined to be away from Portman Road.

Derby County

On 27 July 2007, Price joined Premier League club Derby County, for an undisclosed fee on a three-year contract, to provide back-up and competition for then first choice goalkeeper Stephen Bywater. Price made his debut for Derby against Liverpool on 26 December, after Stephen Bywater was injured in the…

International career

Price received his first call-up to the full Wales international squad for a friendly against Slovenia on 17 August 2005, but missed out on his first cap after he was forced to withdraw with a knee injury. He then made his debut against Cyprus on 17 November 2005. He won the last of his 11 caps in a 2–0 2014 World Cup qualifying defeat to Croatia on 16 October 2012.

Coaching career

Following retirement as a player, Price joined AFC Bournemouth as goalkeeping coach for the club's U21 side in November 2020. After half a season in the role, in August 2021 he joined previous loan club League One club Milton Keynes Dons as First-Team Goalkeeping Coach under newly appointed Head Coach Liam Manning.
